The Chinese word 起码 (qǐ mǎ) is a compound word consisting of two characters: 起 (qǐ) and 码 (mǎ). The character 起 originally meant "to rise" or "to begin", and in modern Chinese it is often used as a verb meaning "to start" or "to get up". The character 码 originally meant "a horse", but in modern Chinese it is often used as a noun meaning "a code" or "a standard". When these two characters are combined, they form the word 起码, which literally means "the beginning of a code" or "the starting point of a standard". In modern Chinese, 起码 is used as an adverb meaning "at least" or "as a minimum". For example, the sentence "我有起码十本书" means "I have at least ten books".
